Is soil contamination by a glyphosate commercial formulation truly harmless to non-target plants? – Evaluation of oxidative damage and antioxidant responses in tomato
Highlights
• Glyphosate exposure greatly impaired tomato's growth and development.
• Increased doses of glyphosate led to oxidative stress, especially in roots.
• Proline, ascorbate and glutathione levels were changed upon glyphosate exposure.
• Glyphosate stimulated the response of the enzymatic AOX system in a dose-dependent manner.
• Soil contamination by glyphosate can pose a serious threat to non-target plants.
